The Great Whale Road is a unique and ambitious game that will enthrall fans of historical fiction and turn based strategy. However, with its disjointed gameplay elements, it doesn't quite succeed in simulating the life of a 6th century Viking
"The Great Whale Road is a single-player historical RPG with a good story, directing players through the Early Middle Ages along the North Sea. Gameplay is divided into winter management and summer sailing, with grid-based tactical combat and historically researched lore bringing an authentic atmosphere. Decide the fate of your village and warband through story-driven decisions, trade, and battles."
